1 Automated Assessment of NIIRS and GRD of High Resolution Satellite Images through Edge Profile Analysis of Natural Targets Taejung Kim, Jae-In Kim Image Engineering Lab Dept. of Geoinformatic Engineering Inha University
2 L o g o Backgrounds Various ways of describing image quality From engineering side, there are many technical parameters Ground sampling distance, Modulation Transfer Function(MTF) sampling freq.), Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR), Relative Edge Response (RER), etc. Tech. parameters may not represent image quality for user Image users may be more interest in other parameters mapping accuracy, interpretability, etc. Image quality regarding interpretability NIIRS (National Image Interpretability Rating Scales) GRD (Ground Resolvable Distance)
3 Backgrounds L o g o Image quality assessed mostly by Artificial Targets Usually for calibration / validation purpose Specially manufactured artificial targets are used Special arrangements (target size, orientation) are required Images around targets are analyzed for RER and SNR Edge profiles are transformed to MTF through curve fitting (Helder et al., 2004)
4 L o g o Research Purpose Automated image quality assessment from natural targets artificial targets natural targets manual edge selection automated selection RER, MTF, SNR GRD, NIIRS reliability of image quality parameters Operational image quality assessment of all remote sensing images without extra costs
5 L o g o Research Purpose NIIRS (National Image Interpretability Rating Scales) Originally used for intelligence/military images In 1996, published by IRARS (Imagery Resolution Assessments and Reporting Standards) For each rating, identifiable targets are defined Separate rating scales exist for military targets and civil/natural targets and for panchromatic, multispectral, radar images NIIRS values are assessed visually by certified image analysts NIIRS values are provided within the satellite metadata
6 L o g o Research Purpose Level GRD (m) Visible NIIRS 0 - Interpretability of the imagery is precluded by obscuration, degradation, or very poor resolution 1 over 9.0 Detect a medium-sized port facility and/or distinguish between taxiways and runways at a large airfield Detect large hangars at airfields. Detect large static radars (e.g., AN/FPS-85, COBRA DANE, PECHORA, HENHOUSE) Identify the wing configuration (e.g., straight, swept, delta) of all large aircraft (e.g., 707, CONCORD, BEAR, BLACKJACK) Identify all large fighters by type (e.g., FENCER, FOXBAT, F-15, F-14). Detect the presence of large individual radar antennas (e.g., TALL KING) Distinguish between a MIDAS and a CANDID by the presence of refueling equipment (e.g., pedestal and wing pod). Identify radar as vehicle-mounted or trailer-mounted Distinguish between models of small/medium helicopters (e.g., HELIX A from HELIX B from HELIX C, HIND D from HIND E, HAZE A from HAZE B from HAZE C) Identify fitments and fairings on a fighter-sized aircraft (e.g., FULCRUM, FOXHOUND) Identify the rivet lines on bomber aircraft. Detect horn-shaped and W- shaped antennas mounted atop BACKTRAP and BACKNET radars. 9 less than 0.10 Differentiate cross-slot from single slot heads on aircraft skin panel fasteners. Identify small light-toned ceramic insulators that connect wires of an antenna canopy.
7 L o g o Research Purpose NIIRS assessment by GIQE General Image quality Equation Proposed by regression analysis between NIIRS, GSD, MTF and SNR values of images Enables assessment of NIIRS from tech. parameters determined by edge analysis NIIRS = a - b* log(gsdgm) + c* log(rergm) (d*h) (e*g/snr) RERGM: Geometric means of Relative Edge Response in x and y direction H: Geometric means of Overshoot height G: Noise gain due to Edge sharpening, Kernel Value of MTF Correction GSD: Ground Sampling Distance SNR: Signal to Noise Ratio
8 L o g o Research Purpose GRD (Ground Resolvable Distance) The minimum distance between two objects to be identified as separate objects Inverse of Line pairs per mm (lp/mm) GRD is assessed by image analysts GRD assessment GRD can be assessed from PSF (Point Spread Function) H : Flying height f : Focal length R : Half peak width of PSF
9 L o g o Research Purpose Proposed procedures Select initial edge points from artificial vs. natural targets manually vs. automatically Determine edge orientation and generate edge profiles Calculate normalized edge profile and edge center Check the criteria for accepting edge profiles Calculate RER, H, SNR and NIIRS Generate point spread function and calculate GRD Repeat the process for other edge points (usually > 50) Determine NIIRS and GRD for the whole scene
10 Validation of GRD/NIIRS Assessment Orientation-invariant edge analysis GIQE uses RER in only x- and y-directions L o g o For natural targets, we have to use edges of arbitrary orientation We need to extract edge profiles perpendicular to edge orientation Test image: bar patterns with orientation changed incrementally by 15 by different cameras Camera Tested: SONY Siber-Shot DSC-S950 SONY α550(dslr) Cannon Exsus 900 Ti Samsung Kenox S500 10
